Hi everyone,

God has blessed me for 70 years and has called me home to the joys of heaven on September 30, 2025.

I came into this world on January 18th, 1955 the son of the late Eugene and Ruth (Borcherdt) Lange.

I graduated from Kaukauna High School in 1973.

As a Customer Service Agent with Air Wisconsin, for 34 years, I worked with and met many wonderful people. After retiring from Air Wisconsin I continued in the airline business working another eight and a half years for General Dynamics (Gulf Stream).

I married my beautiful wife Sandy (Anker) on August 3rd, 1985 and we were blessed with two wonderful sons Jared of Appleton,WI and Brandon (Fiona) of Monroe, NC. As a family we traveled  the United States and abroad creating many lasting memories.

Old cars and airplanes as well as Packer and Brewer games kept me busy. Working at EAA, spearing a sturgeon on Lake Winnebago, refurbishing a jeep, building a cabin in Upper Michigan were all great memories. My time relaxing and enjoying Pine Lake with family was the best!

Being involved in my son's activities growing up was so much fun.  But, my greatest joy was watching my three beautiful granddaughters, Leda, Marnie, and Nellie develop precious personalities and independence.

I leave behind four siblings Sharon (Al) Luedtke, Sandra (Butch) Chalupa, Gary (Sandie), Darryl (Katie). My sister and brother in laws Pam and Pete Zingler, Debbi and Eric Burnett, as well as many wonderful nieces and nephews.

Besides my parents, those I look forward to seeing again in heaven are Claire and Charlotte (Scottie) Anker and our wonderful dog Maggie.

My life has been full and rewarding. In 2016 I was diagnosed with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), and I pray that someday science will find a cure for this rare disease.

I have been blessed beyond measure by the love of family, friends, and all whose paths have crossed mine. Thank you to everyone who has allowed  me to be a part of their lives.

I forgive anyone who feels they have wronged me, and humbly ask for forgiveness from those I may have wronged. I am going home now, having run the race and kept the faith. We will see each other again in paradise.
